Giant-Shell CdSe/CdS Nanocrystals: Exciton Coupling to Shell Phonons Investigated by Resonant Raman Spectroscopy
摘要: The interaction between excitons and phonons in semiconductor nanocrystals plays a crucial role in the exciton energy spectrum and dynamics, and thus in their optical properties. We investigate the exciton-phonon coupling in giant-shell CdSe/CdS core-shell nanocrystals via resonant Raman spectroscopy. The Huang-Rhys parameter is evaluated by the intensity ratio of the longitudinal-optical (LO) phonon of CdS with its first multiscattering (2LO) replica. We used four different excitation wavelengths in the range from the onset of the CdS shell absorption to well above the CdS shell band edge to get insight into resonance effects of the CdS LO phonon with high energy excitonic transitions. The isotropic spherical giant-shell nanocrystals show consistently stronger exciton-phonon coupling as compared to the anisotropic rod-shaped dot-in-rod (DiR) architecture, and the 2LO/LO intensity ratio decreases for excitation wavelengths approaching the CdS band edge. The strong exciton-phonon coupling in the spherical giant-shell nanocrystals can be related to the delocalization of the electronic wave functions. Furthermore, we observe the radial breathing modes of the GS nanocrystals and their overtones by ultra-low frequency Raman spectroscopy with nonresonant excitation, using laser energies well below the band gap of the heteronanocrystals, and highlight the differences between higher order optical and acoustic phonon modes.

Core–Shell‐Heterostructured Magnetic–Plasmonic Nanoassemblies with Highly Retained Magnetic–Plasmonic Activities for Ultrasensitive Bioanalysis in Complex Matrix
摘要: Herein, a facile self-assembly strategy for coassembling oleic acid-coated iron oxide nanoparticles (OC-IONPs) with oleylamine-coated gold nanoparticles (OA-AuNPs) to form colloidal magnetic–plasmonic nanoassemblies (MPNAs) is reported. The resultant MPNAs exhibit a typical core–shell heterostructure comprising aggregated OA-AuNPs as a plasmonic core surrounded by an assembled magnetic shell of OC-IONPs. Owing to the high loading of OA-AuNPs and reasonable spatial distribution of OC-IONPs, the resultant MPNAs exhibit highly retained magnetic–plasmonic activities simultaneously. Using the intrinsic dual functionality of MPNAs as a magnetic separator and a plasmonic signal transducer, it is demonstrated that the assembled MPNAs can achieve the simultaneous magnetic manipulation and optical detection on the lateral flow immunoassay platform after surface functionalization with recognition molecules. In conclusion, the core–shell-heterostructured MPNAs can serve as a nanoanalytical platform for the separation and concentration of target compounds from complex biological samples using magnetic properties and simultaneous optical sensing using plasmonic properties.

Effects of Zn <sup>2+</sup> and Ga <sup>3+</sup> doping on the quantum yield of cluster-derived InP quantum dots
摘要: As the commercial display market grows, the demand for low-toxicity, highly emissive, and size-tunable semiconducting nanoparticles has increased. Indium phosphide quantum dots represent a promising solution to these challenges; unfortunately, they typically suffer from low inherent emissivity resulting from charge carrier trapping. Strategies to improve the emissive characteristics of indium phosphide often involve zinc incorporation into or onto the core itself and the fabrication of core/shell heterostructures. InP clusters are high fidelity platforms for studying processes such as cation exchange and surface doping with exogenous ions since these clusters are used as single-source precursors for quantum dot synthesis. Here, we examined the incorporation of zinc and gallium ions in InP clusters and the use of the resultant doped clusters as single-source precursors to emissive heterostructured nanoparticles. Zinc ions were observed to readily react with InP clusters, resulting in partial cation exchange, whereas gallium resisted cluster incorporation. Zinc-doped clusters effectively converted to emissive nanoparticles, with quantum yields strongly correlated with zinc content. On the other hand, gallium-doped clusters failed to demonstrate improvements in quantum dot emission. These results indicate stark differences in the mechanisms associated with aliovalent and isovalent doping and provide insight into the use of doped clusters to make emissive quantum dots.

Nanostructured colloidal quantum dots for efficient electroluminescence devices
摘要: The exceptional quality of light generated from colloidal quantum dots has attracted continued interest from the display and lighting industry, leading to the development of commercial quantum dot displays based on the photoluminescence down-conversion process. Beyond this technical level, quantum dots are being introduced as emissive materials in electroluminescence devices (or quantum dot-based light-emitting diodes), which boast high internal quantum efficiency of up to 100%, energy efficiency, thinness, and flexibility. In this review, we revisit various milestone studies regarding the core/shell heterostructures of colloidal quantum dots from the viewpoint of electroluminescence materials. Development of nanostructured colloidal quantum dots advanced from core/shell heterostructure, core/thick shell formulation, and delicate control of confinement potential shape has demonstrated close correlation of the photophysical properties of quantum dots with the performance of electroluminescence device, which provided useful guidelines on the heterostructured quantum dots for mitigating or eliminating efficiency limiting phenomena in quantum dot light emitting diodes. To enable practical and high performance quantum dot-based electroluminescence devices in the future, integration of design concepts on the heterostructures with environmentally benign systems will be crucial.
